Happy to report I was able to log some trouble free confidence building miles yesterday and today in the 409. Did about a 20 mile loop out in the country yesterday and then about a 45 mile round trip down to my brother in-laws place today. Mom met us there and it was the first time she saw the car all done and she really liked the transformation.

The new radiator really works well - 80 degrees ambient outside today and rolling along around 55 miles an hour the temp held around 170-180. When coming through town it bumps up a bit but comes right down when we're back rolling along. When it gets up around 185 I can hear the clutch fan starting to pull air so that is working as it should too.

Good stuff........finally.

The correct dated hens tooth 235 voltage regulator was delivered yesterday after being restored - swapped that out last night.
